On RedHat 7.2 I'm running lyx 1.1.6fix3 with ghostscript 7.03.
I set fonts to "pslatex" in document settings and used export to pdf 
from.  It looks pretty, except some of the math disappears. In 
particular, acrobat reader does not show the minus signs!  There is no 
warning.  If I view the same pdf file in xpdf, there is an error message 
saying that the document uses Type 3 fonts and it can't use them.  I 
read in the ps2pdf docs where it says it converts Type 3 fonts to high 
resolution bitmaps, so I'm confused.

I've checked and confirmed that the dvi and ps output exported from the 
same file is fine, only the pdf is trouble.

The frightening part is that I only noticed this problem by accident, 
since I'm not a professional proof reader it is unlikely I would catch 
every inconsistency between a pdf and a lyx file.

Can you enlighten me?
